LS Electric is set to participate in a major energy infrastructure exhibition in Germany, aiming to strengthen its presence in the European energy market. The company plans to showcase a range of products, from high-voltage transformers to direct current distribution solutions, to expand its local customer base.
According to industry sources on June 16, LS Electric will take part in EM-Power 2026, which will be held from June 23 to 25 in Munich. EM-Power is one of the key exhibitions at The Smarter E Europe, the largest energy exhibition in Europe, focusing on smart grids and power transmission and distribution infrastructure.
At the exhibition, LS Electric will present high-voltage transformers, molded transformers, and direct current distribution solutions, emphasizing its capability to provide total solutions across the power equipment spectrum from high to medium and low voltage.
A 132kV 90MVA high-voltage transformer will be prominently displayed at the front of the booth. Earlier this year, LS Electric secured a contract worth 62 billion won for the supply of 400kV high-voltage transformers with a German energy company, accelerating its entry into the European high-voltage market.
The company will also unveil molded transformers and high-voltage distribution panels. LS Electric became the first in South Korea to obtain European environmental labeling certification for its distribution molded transformers last year and plans to gradually transition the insulation component materials to halogen-free to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly power equipment in Europe.
The power industry anticipates a continued shortage of high-voltage transformers and distribution solutions due to the ongoing replacement of aging power grids in Europe and the expansion of AI data centers.
Direct current distribution solutions will also be a key focus at the exhibition, as interest in DC-based power systems is increasing to reduce power conversion losses and enhance operational efficiency amid the rise of AI data centers and renewable energy.
Europe is expanding electrification policies in industries, transportation, and heating to achieve carbon neutrality and energy security. The European Commission estimates that approximately 584 billion euros will be needed for power grid investments by 2030.
An LS Electric representative stated, "Through our participation in this exhibition, we aim to highlight our total power solution capabilities from high-voltage to distribution. We will intensify our efforts to penetrate the European market, which is a strategic area following North America, by strengthening our lineup of eco-friendly and high-efficiency solutions."
